Only One
Day is left
for her contract
marriage to end..Khushi
Kumari Gupta Singh
Raizada is standing
at the window
deep in her
thoughts.

After
two days, she
will again become
Khushi Kumari Gupta!!
No She can’t
be even Gupta. Don’t
Know even her
amma, Buaji and Bauji
will forgive her.

Raizadas and
Guptas abandoned them
for marrying suddenly. They refused
to accept their
marriage. Then her husband
brought her here, his
farm house at the outskirts of
city. From that day,
she din’t stepped
out of this
house. The house is
surrounded by the
tight Security day
and night. Maids were there to help
her
in house c****s…Not to
say, even CCTV
cameras are fixed
everywhere in the
house by her
husband to monitor
her each and
every action..

She din’t
have contacts with
anyone. She is not
allowed to use
any phone in
the house. A strict
order passed by
her husband.

No one
from Raizadas or Guptas
forgave them. So, no one
visited them until
now... But she knew
Arnav regularly visits
his Di. She must
be in her
final month now. The
only person who
forgave her is
her jiji. Payal called
many times to
Arnav and talked
with her... But when
ever Payal wishes
to visit and
see her, Arnav strictly denies
which annoys Payal.

She is
performing her wifely
duties without fail. No
No he made
her forcely do every
wifely duty. Cooking for
him, taking care of
his things, last
but not least
pleasuring him on
bed.. Everyday starts with
her husband’s hurtful
tantrums and ends
with painful cries.

He
never leave a
chance to taunt
her of her
status. He hates her
to the core. She
is bloody gold
digger for him.. Whenever he
is in the
house, it would
be pure hell
for her. He would
taunt her with
hurtful words, manhandles
her sometimes…She got
accustomed to her
husband’s taunting words. She
got used of
it.. They got merged
in her mind
and soul like
blood.

But the
question that is
taunting her from
past six months
is why ?? Why
did he married
me when he
hates me soo
much ?? Why this
pain ?? She got
tired of asking
him again and
again which she won’t get
any answer.

“Ma’m your
lunch” came maid’s voice
from behind which
brought her to
this world.

Maid kept
the lunch on
the table when
Khushi came near
her..

“Can you
do a favour
for me ??’asked Khushi.

Next morning

When
Arnav woke up
from his sleep,
he looked at
Khushi who is smiling
standing infront of
the mirror looking at herself.

“ What are
you doing ?’asked Arnav. Khushi
jerked off hearing
his voice.

Khushi stammered“
N….No…Nothing”. She lost her voice in front
of him all
these days. He came
near to her.

“ Why are
you soo happy ??”asked Arnav. She
din’t say anything.

Coming near to her, Arnav “ Let me
guess.. You must
be happy because
the contract is
going to end
in one day and you
would be free
from tomorrow. Isn’t it ??
Then I am
sorry Khushi. It is
not going to
happen. ” then clutching her
cheeks tightly” You must
be happy because
you will go
to your boyfriend. Isn’t it ?? “

She looked at
him flabbergasted.

“ Don’t
try to act
smart. I know everything
about you. But I have doubt. Will
your boyfriend accept
you now after
being used up
by me ??”asked Arnav
making Khushi flinch
in disgust.

“ You are
not going anywhere. Did
you get that ?? Until
I say, our
contract won’t ends” said
Arnav and left from
there.

Khushi sat
down on the
floor. Boyfriend !! What is he
talking about ?? Then
her hand went
towards her tummy
where her baby
is residing now.
She is grateful
for the maid
who brought her
pregnancy kit without
knowledge of anyone. When
she checked it,
the result is
positive which made
her happy. But in
the next minute,
her husband saw
her seeing in the
mirror and accused something
which she can’t
understand.

After Arnav
left for office,
Khushi was in
her room. The
room door opened
with a loud
bang jerking off
her. She saw
the person standing
infront of her
with wide eyes.

Khushi looking
at the person
Shocking” YOU..”

On the
other hands, Payal is
feeling a weird
sensation in her
heart from morning. She
is getting worried
for Khushi today
like she never
felt.. It is six months
she had seen
her.. Her sudden marriage
to Arnav made
her too angry
but she believes
there must be
some reason behind
it otherwise Khushi
will never take
such a huge
step.. After marriage, when
they moved to
farm house, she tried to visit
her sister but
Arnav denied. He made
her talk with
Khushi few times. Although her
sister says she
is fine, she
could feel some
hollowness in her
tone… She tried to
make others forgive
Khushi but Raizadas
are too
stubborn.. They forgave Arnav
and behaves normally
with him but
when the topic
of Khushi comes, no
one would be willing to
talk.. Even she made
Guptas too understood.. They were
slowly melting but Raizadas aren’t. Today,
she is feeling
her little sister
is in some
trouble. No, she can’t
sit simply here. She
have to go
farm house.

“Khushiji” Shyam’s sweet
coated voice made Khushi flinch
in fear.

“You… How did
you come here ??”asked
Khushi.

“ Don’t get
afraid Khushiji. I know you
must be waiting
for me all
these days but
I couldn’t come
up due to
the security. Now there
is no problem,
I have made
all the security
and maids faint. Come. We will
leave from here” Said
Shyam and hold her
hand shocking Khushi.

“Leave me” protested
Khushi but Shyam dragged
her holding her hand. When they
were finally at
the hall, Khushi
jerked off her
hands roughly.

“ What are
you doing Shyamji ??
Leave from here” said
Khushi angrily.

“Khushiji. Don’t worry
about Arnav. I will
take you far
from here. We
both can live
happily” said Shyam.

“ Shyamji. You are
mad. ” said Khushi.

“ Khushiji. Don’t lie. I
know you love
me. come with me” said
Shyam.

Khushi slapped
him hard making
him go numb” How
many times I
have to say
that I don’t love
you ?? I Hate
you Shyamji. I have
already said to you now
I will say
again, hear it
I Love Arnavji.”

Shyam looked
at her with
red eyes” How dare
you to love
him Khushiji ?? No
you can’t love
him. You are Mine. I
will make you
mine”

With that
he pushed her on
the floor and
started to come
towards her.

“ No one will
save you from me
Khushiji. I will make
you mine now” said Shyam.
He lifted her
holding her arms
while she is
struggling pleading him to
leave. He started to
force himself on
her tearing off
her sleeves. He is
going to kiss
when someone hit
him on his
head. He held
his head leaving
Khushi and turned
only to look
at Payal who
is standing with
a big metal
flower vase.

“Jiji” Khushi rushed
to behind Payal
hiding herself.

Shyam looked
at Payal angrily
and rushed to
them when Payal hit
him again on his
head for second
time. Then without giving
him any chance
to protest, she
started to beat
him with that
vase making him
cry. Khushi stood there
shocked seeing the
kaali avatar of
her sister.

“Stop” a voice
came from behind
making Payal stop
her act.

The trio
looked at Arnav
who is standing
confusion and horror. Payal
looked at Arnav
and then turned
to Khushi. She looked
at her sister
with horror. She is
no more her sister. Her
fragile figure, pale
skin, dark circles and lifeless
eyes. Anger raised up
in her like
no more.

Arnav came to
them “ Payal. What is this ??”

“Leave that
**** Mr.Raizada. Tell me
what have you
done to my
sister ??” asked Payal.

“What ??
Leave him. He is
bleeding dammit” said Arnav.

“ Let him
die. I won’t care. He
deserves it.. How dare
he to touch
my sister ??”said Payal looking at
Shyam in disgust.

Arnav “ There is
no fault of
his. Even your sister
is no saint.”

Payal scrunching
her eyebrows “What do
you mean ??”. Khushi
too looked at him
confused.

“ They
both are having
an affair. I have
seen them on
your marriage day
on terrace hugging. Even
your sister asked
him to leave
my Di, so
that she can
enjoy with him.. When
I asked him,
he told me
that they both
love each other.. How
dare she even
to think to
ruin my Di’s
marriage life ?? You
sister is nothing
but a big
characterless **** ”said Arnav
angrily. In the next
minute, he was
slapped hardly on
his cheek making
him stumble.

Arnav looked
at the person
who slapped him. It
was Payal whose
eyes are red
with fury. Khushi
was shocked to
hear those words
from Arnav.. Her face
became blood ridden.

“ Don’t
you dare to
say a word
against my sister
Mr.Raizada.. What do you
know about your
soo called Jijaji ?? You
don’t know anything.. I
feel pity for
you Mr.Raizada. I
will say the
truth to you
listen. My sister never
loved this person. If
not for you
this person never entered
our lives. You
know what happened
after you released
the tape to
media in Lucknow. Some
goons tried to
molest Khushi on
the road when
your Jijaji came
and rescued her. He followed
us to Delhi. He
pretended himself to be
orphan and bachelor,
stayed as PG
in our Buaji’s
house, got engaged to
Khushi. When Khushi found
out about him
on Puja in
your house, we
broke the engagement. All these
days we were
quiet only because
of your Di as she
is pregnant. “ said
Payal.

Arnav looked
at her flabbergasted.

“ Still
don’t believe me
right!! Then you
can go and
ask any house
in Laxmi nagar
about him staying
as PG in
our house and
getting engaged to Khushi,
they will say
you” said Payal.

Arnav stumbled
back a bit seeing
the truth in
Payal’s eyes and
looked at Khushi
whose eyes are
holding pain.

“ Is this
is the reason
you black mailed me
to marry you
Arnavji ?? Because you
thought I was
having affair with
him” asked Khushi looking
at him with
tears.

Arnav looked
aside feeling ashamed
when Khushi got
her answer. She is
going to fall
but Payal held
her. Arnav is in
his own trauma
to realise
anything.

“ Let’s go Khushi” said
Payal and took
her along with
her. Arnav sat down
on the sofa
looking at the
direction they went. He messed all
the things with
his own assumptions.

The doorbell
rang and Buaji
opened the door
only to see
her two nieces
standing infront of
her. She wanted to
shout at Khushi
but seeing her
state, she felt
something is wrong.

Payal brought
Khushi in and
made her sit on
the sofa. Garima too
came there hearing
noises.

“Payaliya. What happened
to Titaliya ??”asked Buaji
worried looking at Khushi
who was lost
in her own
world.

“Amma. We can talk later. Take Khushi
inside. She needs rest” said
Payal and Garima
took Khushi inside.

IN RM:

Anjali made a fuss
seeing Shyam injured. Arnav somehow
assured he fell from stairs and left her in the room. He entered
his room and sat down thinking when
NK came there.

“Payalji asked me to give this to you” said NK handing
a cover. It has a CD
in it. NK played it on the
TV. It was terrace scene where
Khushi and Shyam’s
conversation had occurred. Arnav
saw it completely
and slumped down onto the bed. Khushi
confessed she loves Arnav
in the video.
NK left from
there.

Arnav din’t knew how much hours he
sat there. Finally deciding
something he asked HP
to make everyone assemble in
Hall excluding Anjali and Shyam
which he did.

He narrated
about his deeds
to family making
them numb. Nani slumped down on to the
floor.

“What have
you done Chote ? Is
this what I taught you ?”said Nani
with tears.

Then, after sometime, determining
something” We all have to go
Gupta House now”

Nodding, everyone followed
them not knowing
how to face
Guptas.

Payal and
Buaji entered the
house brining grocery. Garima was sitting on the sofa lost in
her thoughts.

“Amma. Where is
Khushi ??”asked Payal.

“ I have made her eat and now she is sleeping” said Garima.

“Ok. Let her take rest. “ said Payal. For
the next two
hours, they arranged
all the grocery.

It was
in the evening.

“Amma. I will
wake up Khushi” said Payal
and going to
enter in when
she found it
locked from inside. She
knocked the door
for several times
but she din’t
opened it.

Buaji came
into the hall” Garima. Have you
seen my sleeping tablets ??”

“NO jiji. “ said
Garima.

“They are not in the
room” said Buaji..

“Amma. Khushi is not opening the door” said
Payal panicked..

Seeing
it, Garima and
Buaji too knocked the door but
din’t opened the door. Payal
got afraid now
and went towards window
but it was
locked. They all tried for nearly
twenty minutes but She din’t
opened the door. Payal called Happy singh
and others. They finally broke
the door and
entered in.

Seeing the
scene infront of
him, blood drained out of
everyone’s face. Khushi is lying lifelessly on the floor
in a pool of blood. She cut her
wrist. Payal rushed to her and took her in
her lap. The bottle of Sleeping tablets fell from Khushi’s hands.

She was immediately
taken to hospital.

That is
when Raizadas descended from their
car. They saw neighbours whispering to themselves
seeing them.

Seeing them, the
boy who works
in Happy singh’s garage came to
them.

“ Khushi jiji
attempted suicide. She was taken to the hospital” said the
boy.

All the
Raizadas rushed to the
hospital panicked.

When they
reached doctor is
coming out checking
Khushi.

Arnav rushed asking “ Doctor. How
is she ?”

“ I am
Sorry. But she is no
more” declared the doctor.

World crashed
down on Guptas
and Raizadas hearing
it. Garima and Buaji
cried bitterly hearing
it.

“ What the
hell are you speaking ??”asked Arnav
angrily. He rushed inside followed by others.

“ He is
saying what you
want to hear
Mr.Raizada” said Payal angrily “Why ? Is n’t
this what you wished
for ?? See now my
sister is no more. Your sister’s life is safe”

“Khushi! Please open your
eyes. You can’t do this
to me. I can’t
live with out you” said
Arnav cupping her
cheeks when Payal
pushed him off.

“Dare you
Mr.Raizada. You don’t have
any rights on
my sister. You have
won. You successfully killed my
sister and her baby” said Payal.

Baby!! Arnav went
numb hearing the
word. Khushi is pregnant ! He din’t knew about it.
Raizadas too were Shocked.

“Payal Bitiya!”
Nani is going
to say something
but Payal ” Why
did you come
here now ?? All these
days, you din’t even wanted to
hear her name, so now
why ?? Don’t say
Bitiya to us, because you never
mean it. You will forgive your grandson
for sudden marriage
but not my
sister. You are all
selfish people. For your selfishness
my sister and her baby died ”

The whole
Raizadas lowered their heads
in shame. They don’t have
any answers to Payal’s questions.

Payal thrusted
a letter into Arnav’s hands
which he opened.

Amma, Babuji, Buaji, Jiji.

I am sorry for taking this step. I don’t have any
reason
to live now. My marriage with Arnavji
ends tomorrow. Now he will leave
me. I don’t know where to go and what to do. I can’t be a burden to you all
anymore with my baby. Yes, I am pregnant. I am afraid of this society now. I
can’t bear their tantrums anymore. I know I am committing a big sin. I don’t
have any right to kill my child but I am a
coward . I can’t tolerate anymore . I
don’t have anymore strength to fight back. Arnavji won’t accept me and my baby. I don’t want my baby to call by
names. So I am giving up. I am
sorry to
hurt you all. Jiji, I want you
to forgive Arnavji. Plz, don’t be angry
on him. Don’t spoil your life
because of me. Will you fulfil my last wish Jiji ?? I want you
to perform my funeral. Only you

Arnavji ,

I loved you. I have always loved you. But it is my fate
that you hate me. I know you don’t give a damn
to my baby. I know it won’t make a difference to you
with my death. I
don’t have any grudges
with you. Please Arnavji, for humanity
sake, fulfil my last wish. Let me live
in Peace in that world away
from everyone. Don’t follow
me there too. I am sorry for all the mishaps happened
in your life and
family because of me.

Arnav sat
down on the
chair crying hugging the letter.

“I Love
you Khushi” muttered Arnav crying.

Everyone stood
there looking at the burning
flames. Payal completed the
funeral of her sister.

“Payal” Akash is
going to ask
when Payal said” Don’t
worry Akash. Our
relation won’t end. I
don’t want my sister’s
sacrifice to go in
vain. She did all
this for me. But I
can’t enter again
into Shantivan”

Akash nodded
his head understanding.

But one
person stood there
looking lost and
aloof from this world. It is Arnav.
He lost
her. He lost love
of his life and their
baby too. All because
of his misunderstanding and ego. He
hated himself now. Now,
he have to
live alone without
her, without his
Khushi, FOREVER. It is the biggest
punishment for all
his deeds.

This one
shot is written for
Contract marriage Anniversary
and awarded as winner.

Thank you
Kiddo_Star and Arshiforever92 for
this opportunity.. Thanks to all who
have liked my one shot..

Thank you
all………..

I know many
of you din’t
liked killing Khushi. But
I always wanted
to write a
story with Sad
ending. Sometimes, a person
will have only
option, Suicide. Any strong man/woman
fall weak at
some instants and
choose this option.

I have
read many stories
of Arshi where
Arnav ill treats Khushi
more than in
serial but finally
Khushi forgives him. I
get irritated when
I read them. How
can anyone forgive
a person soo easily ??
Now, I know
everyone it is
the power of Love..
But I
read some stories which
doesn’t have proper
redemption and always
showing Arnav’s past
reason for his
behaviour. Anyway read
the story and
drop your valuable
comments. Both positive
and negative comments
are welcomed.

Regarding my
story updates, I am
very busy with
my project these
days. Will update from next
week.

As it is one shot i have limited the story removing some scenes which i wrote earlier..So I am thinking to write a two or three shot of this adding more scenes. So Would you like to read ??
